The video and / or audio signal output means 3 is a device that allows a customer to see the video and / or audio signal output from the satellite broadcast signal processing means 2 and may be a monitor or a speaker.

The video and / or audio signal output means 3 will be described later in detail with reference to FIG.

The power supply unit 4 supplies power to the satellite broadcast receiving antenna 1, the satellite broadcast signal processing means 2, and the video and / or audio signal output means 3, but interrupts the power supply by an external input. do.

That is, the power supply unit 4 is the satellite broadcast reception antenna 1 and the satellite broadcast signal processing means only while a high level power control signal is output from the coin or bill recognition means 5, for example. (2) Power is supplied to the video and / or audio signal output means 3.

The power supply unit 4 may be provided with a battery in preparation for a momentary disconnection of electricity, and may continue to supply power for a satellite broadcasting viewing time.

The coin or bill recognition means 5 corresponds to a coin or bill input slot 6, a timer 7 for counting a predetermined time, a display unit 8 for displaying the timer driving time, and a coin or bill input signal. And power supply driving means 9 for converting the satellite broadcast viewable time and outputting a power control signal to the power supply unit 4 for a corresponding time.

The power driving means 9 recognizes a coin or bill input signal through the coin or bill input slot 6 and counts an input amount corresponding to the recognized result, and enables satellite broadcasting viewing time by the counted amount. The internal timer 7 is set in terms of, and the power control signal is output during the setting time of the timer 7.

2 is a view showing the appearance of a satellite broadcasting pay receiver according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In the following, to assist in understanding the present invention, with reference to FIG. 2 other components except for the antenna for receiving the satellite broadcast will be described in a state that is housed by one cover case, only one embodiment of the present invention and the present invention Each component of the can be configured in various forms depending on the installation location and size.

Referring to FIG. 2, the satellite broadcasting pay receiver includes a main body 10, a monitor 11 installed inside the main body 10 on the front of the main body, and outputting a video signal. And a speaker 13 installed in the space and outputting an audio signal, a coin or banknote inlet 16, and a display unit 15 for displaying the satellite broadcasting viewing time.

In the main body 10, the satellite broadcast signal processing means 2, the power supply unit 4, and a coin or bill recognition means 5 are embedded.

The monitor should be selected in size according to the installation location. In particular, the monitor may use the liquid crystal monitor 11 due to the limitation of the installation space.
